Ok i have been working my ass off doing over time this year so i could by my self something a little special for the drift. I was sick of ren being a million mphs faster in his m3 and wated something silly quick but avoiding M tax. I settled on a 540 Manual with lots of nice bits. Now i know this doesnt look tramp but hold on in there. Couple of sneaky pics. im flying to london 2morrow to collect it. Now nearly all the cool bits will be removed and sold on to get the price of the car down. i will be replacing them with replica bits or stanard OEM bits. I reckon when its all sold the car will stand me between 1200- 1500 quid which is more or less what building the e34 4.0 v8 i had planned was gonna cost. Bad bit about these is the center bore is bigger than all other BMWs so i am having to get a set of hubs machined so i can fit all my hot e34 wheels. The coilovers from my daily will be added to hopefully make a competent drifter. its will be stripped out ( as the interiors worth £££) and 2 buckets and a hydro added. To say im looking forwards to getting it is an understatement. 282 hp and 310 lb·ft what do ya think?
im not gonna beat it. has to lose the sport bumpers though as there worth too much. Hopefully found someone with a slightly damaged rep to do a px with. I promise not to destroy it on purpose im not MJG after all
Very nice dude, I wondered what you were up to when I saw your ass dragger on piston heads the other day.
no no no a e34 518i is a waste of a very good car , fast 5's are built to be driven , and they love to be driven hard.
Having had one already,I can tell you that they are feckin awesome,sort the diff out and they will do 4th gear skids all day long!...you will love it mate
Ditch the jank spoiler and its complete, step way! Id rather be poor and have a sexual looking car than a shit one and a few quid spare.
it will stay pretty much the same but yes spolier will go and for the mean time the back bumper untill i find a cheap ropey one i can repair. Already got a ropey frot sport bumper lined up for repair and im gonna black the sparechrome i have and sell the genuine shadowline. Apart from that gonna add my coikover from the 520 and weld the diff
